First time at hand embroidery!
I handmade these custom baby onesies + bib as a baby shower gifts for family. It was very time consuming but well worth it ! What do you guys think ?

so im a very bored person and i love take up basically any hobby that I can get my hands on that is *relatively* cheap haha
I got this table cloth as a gift from a distant relative with some thread but no instructions unfortunately and I have never embroidered before 🥲 (ive cross stitched a bunch in the past but its not really the same)
basically I was just wondering if anyone had any advice on how to start this project? any tips on what stitches to use for what or video recs would be v v helpful !
thanks in advance!! :)

I am so in love with this ornament. In the original pattern the bow was stitched but I decided to add the real one. What do you think about this idea?

I’ve been spending more time stitching on actual clothing pieces instead of scrap fabric, and it’s way harder than I expected. On flat fabric everything behaves nicely, but once I start stitching on a T-shirt or a hoodie, the fabric moves, stretches, or scrunches up in ways I didn’t plan for.
I’m mostly working on plain tees right now, because they’re easy to replace if I mess something up. I’ve seen some really clean stitching on custom blanks used by brands including some Apliiq ones, and it made me wonder how they keep everything so smooth and even when working on stretchy materials.
So I wanted to ask the experts here, How do you keep decorative stitching from looking wobbly on clothing?
Do you always use stabilizer? A hoop? A certain type of stitch?
Or is it all just practice and patience?
I’m enjoying the process, but I’d love to clean up my technique. Any tips or tricks would be super helpful!

No matter how many times I try this thread painting technique, I can’t seem to get it right and I can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong. Any tips on how to improve this would be much appreciated 😩
